I was in Asda at 6am, fine tuning the Christmas supplies, and just had hair cut. Ready for football now.
I’m never drinking again. Feel rough as ****. I woke up with my face painted with glitter & terrible wind.
My wife doesn't drink for religious/cultural reasons, so over 10 years my intake steadily reduced and a few years ago I realised around Xmas time that I hadn't had a drink for 6 months, so didn't bother for the Xmas period and never started again. If I'm honest, I don't miss it at all and couldn't go back to the headaches, bad sleep and lost time. Probably less social outside of family now, but most of it was small talk and habit to fill the time. Each to their own, I'm not against it, although now find it tedious to be around drunk people, but wonder how more productive my late teens and twenties would have been had I never taken it up so enthusiastically.
There is nothing worse than being in a crowd of drunks when you are not. Same years ago when you were the only one not having a spliff and everyone else was sat talking nonsense. A mixture of not being on the same wavelength and thinking am I like that? Don’t drink very often nowadays and looking back regret how much time and money was spent down the pub with so-called mates whenI could have spent it with and on the wife and kids.
Gave up drinking at 1991...?! knobheads I think you meant ‘about half 8’ anyway it’s way past that now...start again
Thought that was your bathroom cabinet for a moment Chazz. Think you could drink any of the above on a Sunday lunch, but only in moderation (could be the pub!) but I wouldn’t recommend mixing them. Pm Dennis for more in-depth information
This is my first Christmas totally tee total and have been for over a year due to health issues, wife has bought pouilly fume for Xmas knowing I used to like it! She says it’s to remind of Xmas past, not that I can drink it of course so not sure of the logic.
